<a href="https://uk.trip.com/trains/guide/what-is-a-split-save-train-ticket/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Split Tickets discount</a>

Using a Railcard for 1/3 off

Options include the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, plus the 16-17 Saver which offers 50% off.

<a href="https://uk.trip.com/trains/guide/travel-with-large-groups/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Group travel deals</a>

Group travel deals

If you are traveling in a group of 3 to 9 people, you can take advantage of group discounts (offered by most train companies) for up to 1/3 off standard fares. This can make traveling from Runcorn to Blackpool more affordable for families, friends, or colleagues planning a trip together.
<a href="https://uk.trip.com/trains/guide/uk-train-off-peak-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Travel during Off-Peak train times</a>

Travel during Off-Peak train times

To enjoy a calmer and often cheaper journey, we recommend choosing Off-Peak services and steering clear of the busy rush-hour periods. While timings differ slightly by operator, it's usually best to avoid traveling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. On weekends and bank holidays, Off-Peak fares apply all day.
